PHILIP WEBB AWARD

First awarded in 1993, the Philip Webb Award sets architects in the early stages of their career a demanding but exciting dual conservation and design challenge.

The brief is to devise a scheme which sympathetically revitalises a historic building for reuse through careful repair of existing fabric and a significant element of new construction in a contemporary design. It’s a unique opportunity for those interested in sustainability, the reuse of old buildings and in developing experience in conservation practice to engage with the SPAB’s principles and showcase their skills. The award is open to current students at Schools of Architecture in the UK and Ireland who have achieved RIBA Part 1 and are engaged in / completing RIBA Part II (or their equivalents); and to recent Part II graduates who completed their studies in the previous two years.

Submission of entries for the 2022 award opens on 18 July 2022 and closes at 5pm on 12 September 2022.
